Welcome to the Mizzou Department of Statistics! It is an exciting time to be a Tiger, with a new administration across all levels of the University. The University, College, and Department have many new initiatives to promote teaching, research, and service in a climate that embraces diversity and mutual respect. In the Statistics Department, we continue to develop and modify our curriculum to keep up with the changing times in the “data science revolution.” It has long been a strength of this Department that we have adapted our curriculum to provide the most modern and relevant classes for our students, while continuing to provide the strong mathematical foundations that are required to enable life-long learning in Statistics. We also will seek to provide new options for student involvement in committees, contests, discussion groups, as well as social interactions. We are lucky in this department to have a group of students and internationally renowned faculty with varied backgrounds and research interests - this provides so much opportunity to expand our horizons!
